Ruckle Retreat | Hot Tub + Sports Den + Putt Putt

Summary:

Stay close to downtown in a design-forward 4BR home built for group trips and family stays. You’ll have room for 12, four full bathrooms, a sports-themed basement lounge, a kids’ game room, and a backyard setup with a hot tub, 3-hole putt-putt, grill, and outdoor seating. Quick access to Mass Ave, Bottleworks, Monument Circle, and more makes this an easy home base for Indy weekends.



The Space:

This one was built for groups that want more than just a place to crash. Inside, you’ll find four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and a layout that gives everyone space to spread out. The design leans high-end with a playful sports edge, so it feels polished without feeling stiff. Plush cotton bedding, blackout curtains, and TVs in every bedroom keep the stay easy from check-in to lights out.



The main floor bedroom and full bath make the setup flexible for mixed-age groups or anyone who’d rather skip the stairs. Upstairs, the primary suite gives you a little extra room to settle in, while the additional bedrooms keep things family-friendly and practical. Downstairs, the basement hangout brings the fun with 2 rooms, 1 game room with Motion X, a motion-tracking play system with 50+ games, and another den room with a big TV, bar, mini fridge, card table, and a full bath nearby.



Out back, the setup keeps the momentum going. Hot tub. Small putt-putt area. Outdoor seating. Grill ready to go. Whether you’re in town for a game, a family weekend, or just a long catch-up trip with friends, this place is built to keep everyone together without feeling crowded.

Guest Access:

Guests will have access to the full home, including the backyard, hot tub, garage, driveway parking, and basement hangout areas. The only spaces not accessible to guests are two locked interior closets.



The Neighborhood:

You’ll be staying in one of Indy’s historic near-downtown pockets, where classic homes, tree-lined streets, and quick access to the city all come together. It feels more residential than the middle of downtown, but you’re still minutes from Mass Ave, Bottleworks, Monument Circle, restaurants, coffee spots, sports, and family attractions.



Getting Around:

Parking is easy here. You’ll have access to a private two-car garage around back off the alley, plus room for two more cars in the driveway. Street parking is also available on one side of the street. Rideshares are easy to grab, and most downtown spots are a quick drive. You can get to Mass Ave in about 6 minutes, Bottleworks in about 7, Monument Circle in about 8, and the zoo in about 11.



Other Things to Note:

You’ll get a digital guidebook before your stay with house details, check-in info, and our favorite local spots. ***Due to having a hot tub, we DO REQUIRE you to sign a rental agreement in your guest portal, before check in.*** The home has a smart lock for easy arrival, a Keurig with coffee provided, a grill for outdoor meals, and a washer and dryer in the basement. Traveling with little ones? We’ve also got family-friendly extras like a high chair and pack and play. Since the home has living space across multiple levels, be ready for stairs during your stay.



Interaction with Guests:

We’re always just a message away. You’ll have everything you need for a self-guided stay, but if anything comes up, we respond quickly and will get it handled.
